required direction.
The lower mirrors are not adjustable.
Electric adjustment
Select the relevant exterior mirror by
turning the control to left _ or right 6.

38Seats, restraintsSeat belts
The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle holding the occupants in
the sitting position. Therefore the risk
of injury is considerably reduced.
9 Warning
Fasten seat belt before each trip.
In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger their fellow occupants and
themselves.
Seat belts are designed to be used by only one person at a time. Child
restraint system 3 47.
Periodically check all parts of the belt
system for damage, pollution and
proper functionality.
Have damaged components
replaced. After an accident, have the
belts and triggered belt pretensioners replaced by a workshop.
Notice
Make sure that the belts are not
damaged by shoes or sharp-edged
objects or are trapped. Prevent dirt
from getting into the belt retractors.
Seat belt reminder X 3 73.
Belt force limiters On the front seats, stress on the body
is reduced by the gradual release of
the belt during a collision.
Belt pretensioners In the event of a head-on or rear-end
collision of a certain severity, the front
seat belts are tightened.9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of belts) can trigger the belt
pretensioners.
Deployment of the belt pretensioners
is indicated by continuous illumination
of control indicator v 3 73.
Triggered belt pretensioners must be replaced by a workshop. Belt
pretensioners can only be triggered
once.
Notice
Do not affix or install accessories or
other objects that may interfere with
the operation of the belt
pretensioners. Do not make any
modifications to belt pretensioner components as this will invalidate
the approval of your vehicle.

Seats, restraints41Airbag system
The airbag system consists of a
number of individual systems
depending on the scope of
equipment.
When triggered, the airbags inflate
within milliseconds. They also deflate
so quickly that it is often unnoticeable during the collision.
Notice
Depending on the severity of a
collision, the fuel system may also be cut-off and the engine switched
off automatically, for safety reasons.
Resetting the fuel cut-off system;
refer to "Fuel system messages"
3 85.
Notice
Expiry dates for replacing the airbag system components may be found
on the label inside the glovebox.
Contact a workshop to have the
airbag system components
replaced.9 Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an
explosive manner.
Notice
The airbag systems and belt
pretensioner control electronics are
located in the centre console area.
Do not put any magnetic objects in
this area.
Do not fix any objects onto the airbag
covers and do not cover them with
other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.
Have deployed airbags replaced by
a workshop. Furthermore, it might be necessary to have the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, parts of
the panelling, the door seals,
handles and the seats replaced.
Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will
invalidate the vehicle type approval.
9 Warning
When the airbags inflate, escaping
hot gases may cause burns.
